how to delete an ibook from icloud

I downloaded an embarasing erotic ibook and now it shows up on my kid's ipods, my wife's ipad. I know you are thinking what an idiot and he deserves it, however now that I have been caught and shamed by my wife the joke is over. Now I just want to get rid of the **** thing but no matter what I try it won't go away from the purchased section of ibooks.

Does anyone know of a way to delete a purchased book so it is gone forever?

I just contacted apple support and it looks like the only way to delete a purchase from you cloud purchase history is to send them a support request and someone at apple has to delete it from your account. I just sent the request out. I'll update when I here back from apple.

After contact with apple it was confirmed that it can NOT be removed from my purchase history. My solution was to remove iBooks from all my devices and never use it again. Problem "solved" I guess, way to keep customers Apple:)

Hi Michael! I have a question about how to "hide [an] item in your purchase history" as you describe above. In an earlier post you say to do this:

"Go to your purchase history > Books, hover the cursor over the book and click the "x" to hide the eBook. It will no longer show up in any cloud libraries."

How exactly do you access your "purchase history"? From iTunes? I tried accessing this from iBooks on my Mac (just downloaded the free software update and now it's an app) and it will not let me access my purchase history or even delete or hide any books. Let me know if you get a chance, thank you!
